RE: 24/96 maybe

Have you tried DSD 5.6-MHz? Personally, I think it is the best sounding format I've ever heard. I used to use an Alesis Masterlink to record my vinyl at 24/96 and I thought it was perfect. However, after buying my TASCAM DA-3000 and making some DSD 5.6-MHz recordings, I feel like they are even more perfect if that's possible. ;-) Anyway, I kind of fell in love with DSD 5.6-MHz and since storage memory is cheap nowadays, I've decided to make all future recordings of vinyl at DSD 5.6-MHz. Perhaps it's really not any better than 24/96, but it's fun to do and it sounds better to me.

Incidentally, I really like my DA-3000. I also use it as an autonomous digital player by plugging in USB flash drives to its front panel USB port. I have a lot of commercial hi-res digital including DSD 2.8-MHz and the DA-3000 seems to have one of the best sounding DACs I've ever heard.

How do you like your DA-3000?

Best regards,
John Elison
